A leader in the transaction processing industry, Epson introduced its newest small footprint slip printer, the TM-U590, at the BAI Retail Delivery show Tuesday.

Backed by Epson quality and reliability, the TM-U590 has a wide print column capacity of 88 and 66 columns, respectively. The TM-U590 features an internal customer-display mount and is compatible with Epson's line of IT intelligent POS peripherals.

Epson's IT has a unique modular design that is ideal for banks requiring a complete transaction processing system in a small space-saving footprint. By combining one of Epson's ITs with the new TM-U590 printer, banks can tailor a system to meet their individual institution's needs.

"The TM-U590 can be used in a wide variety of transaction processing applications with its wide slip capability, which is ideal for A4-size documents," said Bud Weist, business unit director, Epson. "The TM-U590 also has a MICR reading option for check validation."

Other features include print fonts of 7x9 and 9x9, a print speed of 2.8 for 88 columns of print and 4.9 for 40 columns and the capability to produce an original plus four copies for added convenience. The TM-U590 has an MCBF of 8 million lines and conforms to all the industry safety standards.

The TM-U590 is currently available and carries an MSRP of $ 808.
